Gigi Turns Basic Into Chic With This One Item

by Augusta Statz

This girl always looks amazing, and that’s partially due to her amazing team of stylists and makeup gurus. Gigi Hadid wore a beige ensemble to an event that celebrated the launch of Monica Rose's jewelry collection. Rose has been know to style the model a time or two, so of course, Hadid was amongst the group of celebrities that came out to support her. Stylish and a good friend — she really is the best.

Hadid kept her look mostly casual, wearing a simple turtleneck and white distressed jeans, but she topped the outfit off with a beige cape. And that’s what really took the look to the next level. This outer layer was able to pull everything together into a sleek and very polished ensemble. Clearly, Hadid and I do casual differently — but not for long!

There are a variety of capes that are available to shop that will give any outfit a more polished feel. So, Hadid, in terms of style status, I’m coming for you. I so badly want to be on her level, and you will, too, once you see the model’s monochromatic outfit. After you're feeling all inspired, shop similar capes so that the next time you wear a pair of jeans and a turtleneck, it can looks just as good as this.

That cape made this look so classy. It's simply amazing.
